If we don't curb the opponent's methods from the source now, sooner or later the Xiao family army will be restrained everywhere.

It will be difficult to turn around at that time.

General Xiao pondered for a moment and then decided, "We cannot delay the purchase of grain. At present, we can only purchase food farther away from Fengcheng."

Having said this, the old man looked slightly solemn.

"It will definitely take a long time for you to leave. I'm afraid that if you are not in the camp, someone will take the opportunity to cause trouble."

What happened last night is still fresh in my mind.

Although General Xiao did not come to the scene in person, it is not difficult to hear the other party's careful plan from Nie Quan's report.

If the other party finds out that Meng Fang is leaving Fengcheng for a few days, they will probably use more insidious tactics to frame the Xiao family.

"If it's just this, there is still a way to prevent it."

After Meng Fang came back, he also saw the thief who pretended to be him, but at this time there were more important problems to be solved.

"I'm afraid that even if I go to a distant town, I won't be able to buy the food back. Even if someone is really willing to sell it, the transportation back to Fengcheng will probably be in danger."

"It is still unclear how much food my subordinates will be able to save and return to the city in the end."

General Xiao naturally wanted to understand Meng Fang's concerns.

This man behind the scenes could make all the merchants in neighboring counties give up doing business with the Xiao family army, which shows that he is powerful and it is not impossible to send people pretending to be bandits to rob the military supplies along the way.

As long as we don't find out who this person is, and we don't get evidence that he murdered Xiao Jiajun, Xiao Jiajun and Xiao Mansion will have endless troubles every day in the future.

This matter was too difficult, and the two people in the study fell silent.

"General, the young grandson and the young lady are here to visit you."

The voices of government soldiers rang out in the courtyard.

The study room of the Xiao Mansion is the most important military location of the Xiao family. It is guarded by two or three layers of soldiers from the outer courtyard to the inner courtyard.

As soon as the young master and the young lady arrived at the outer courtyard, the soldiers came in with news.

"Arrange the manpower you need, and when you are ready, leave immediately and go to other towns to inquire."

Mr. Xiao stood up and walked to Meng Fang and patted him on the shoulder.

"Come on, we have been bored in the study all morning. Let's go out and meet my two pistachios and have a good time."

After hearing this, Meng Fang's stern expression relaxed slightly.

Opening the door to the study, Mr. Xiao saw two little dolls running into the yard hand in hand. The moment they saw him, their little eyes lit up.

The little baby giggled until his heart burst into laughter.

Behind them followed Lu Wuming, who was walking steadily. When they saw General Xiao, they immediately cupped their fists and saluted.

Seeing Lu Wuming following him, Mr. Xiao immediately understood why the two children were here.

"Hello, Grandpa, and Uncle Meng."

Su Qingtian stood obediently in front of Mr. Xiao, bowed gracefully, and the two little ones swayed and swayed, they were so cute.

The soft and sweet voice of grandpa went directly to General Xiao's heart, and it was so sweet that he immediately forgot his sorrow.

Meng Fang looked at Xiao Nizi with a faint smile on his lips.

"Hello, Grandpa, and Uncle Meng."

Xiao Nan also imitated the sweet sister's behavior, saying hello to General Xiao and Meng Fang, and saluting handsomely with clasped fists.

This is Lu Wuming's favorite way of giving gifts, and Xiao Nan naturally imitates it, hoping that one day he will be as amazing in martial arts as Brother Lu.

Seeing the two little ones imitating adults, Mr. Xiao couldn't help laughing.

"Meng Fang, my grandson is cute."

Meng Fang nodded with a smile, then turned and left.

"What are you two little darlings doing here looking for grandpa and grandpa?"

The old general stroked his beard and looked at the two children, smiling lovingly and saying, "Nan'er, you want to ask me to find a personal bodyguard like Wuming for Xiao Qingtian?"

Hearing his grandfather's words of knowing things like a god, Xiao Nan was so shocked that his eyes widened with admiration on his face.

Grandpa is so awesome, how come he knew it before he even said it?

General Xiao was especially impressed by the adoring look from his little grandson.

He touched Xiao Nan's head in a good mood, squatted down and looked at Su Qingtian beside him.

"Xiao Qingtian, do you really want a bodyguard like your brother?" Mr. Xiao asked very carefully.

When war broke out, Mr. Xiao was ordered to go to the battlefield and had no time to participate in the growth of his daughter Hongxia. Now it is a regret in his heart.

Now the sudden arrival of the little granddaughter in front of him made him feel the joy of the little cotton-padded jacket again. Naturally, he wanted to give her the greatest favor and the best things, and to make up for his guilt towards Hongxia.

He had already prepared. He didn't want Xiao Qingtian to follow Hongxia's old path. Not only did he have to arrange personal guards for her, but he also arranged several secret guards to protect her safety.

It's just that he thinks the little girl is too young, soft and cute, and something bad has happened to her before, so he's afraid that she will be frightened if a stranger is suddenly placed next to her.

Unexpectedly, Nan'er accidentally contributed to this incident.

At this time, when Su Qingtian heard that her grandfather knew the purpose of their visit, she immediately nodded excitedly.

She was extremely happy when she thought that she could go in and out of the Xiao Mansion at will without the supervision of her grandfather and uncle.

The little baby stretched out his small hand and grabbed General Xiao's big hand, shaking it while acting coquettishly.

"I want it, Qingtian also wants a guard as powerful as Brother Nan."

"Grandpa, is that okay?"

This was the first request the child made when he came to the Xiao Mansion, and Mr. Xiao would not hesitate to accept it.

He touched Su Qingtian's little head.

"Okay, grandpa will definitely choose the most suitable bodyguard for my little Qingtian."

Unexpectedly, the little girl shook her head and shook her grandfather's sleeves.

"I want to choose myself!"

Old General Xiao naturally has a good eye for people, but people are far apart from each other, and she doesn't want to have a white-eyed wolf by her side.

When the time comes, since the man is sent by General Xiao, she can’t drive him away or kill him. It’s really troublesome!

It’s better to seize the initiative and make your own choice!

This was the first time that General Xiao had to choose his own bodyguard, but his granddaughter's clear eyes looked straight at him, which made his heart melt and he was immediately defeated.

"Okay, okay, Xiao Qingtian can choose for herself."

General Xiao is still very confident about the secret guards he has trained.

Although some people are not the best in martial arts, they are all top-notch.

No matter who the little girl chooses, it won't be a big problem.

Seeing her grandpa agreeing, Su Qing cheered sweetly and threw herself into Mr. Xiao's arms.

"Grandpa is the best!"

"Qing Tian likes grandpa the most!"

Holding his little granddaughter in his arms, Mr. Xiao was also infected by her happiness and smiled brightly.

He picked up the little girl in his arms, pinched her little nose, and smiled cheerfully.

Xiao Nan stood aside and also smiled happily.

As long as my sweet sister is happy, I will be happy too!

I wanted to choose a bodyguard right away, but it was already lunch time, and Mr. Xiao still asked his grandchildren to eat on time. It was a time when the body was growing, so they must not be hungry or full.
